With the BODY EP SCOTT FRASER signs his third collaboration for ASTRO LAB RECORDINGS, after the highly acclaimed "JOHN HUGUE EXPERIENCE" with MARK E on the remix and tracks on labels such BIRD SCARER, CRIMES OF THE FUTURE, Scott is back with this inspired track of Old School Chicago house with a small touch of classic DETROIT techno. With Scott we decided to ask RAUDIVE for the b-side remix, he tuned BODY into his own techno secret, strong bass treatment, crazy synth, something really strong for the dance floor !. Already supported by Ivan Smagghe, Pilooski, Andrew Weatherall, Rebolledo, Red Axes, Matt Walsh, Remain, Cosmo Vitelli and more.
